Ingredients

• 3 pounds Boneless pork shoulder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 cup Chicken broth
• 1.5 cups BBQ sauce
• 6 Sandwich buns
• 0.5 cup Pickles (optional, for serving)
• 1 cup Coleslaw (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pork shoulder into 3-4 large chunks to help it cook evenly.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Step 3

Rub the spice mixture all over the pork chunks to season them well.

Step 4

Set your pressure cooker to 'Sauté' mode. Sear the pork chunks in batches for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the pork and set it aside.

Step 5

Add the chicken broth to the pressure cooker and scrape the bottom to deglaze and lift any browned bits. This will add flavor to the dish and prevent burning.

Step 6

Return the pork chunks to the pressure cooker. Secure the lid, ensuring the vent is set to 'Sealing'.

Step 7

Set the pressure cooker to 'Manual' or 'Pressure Cook' mode for 45 minutes on high pressure.

Step 8

Once the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then perform a quick release for any remaining pressure.

Step 9

Carefully remove the pork chunks from the pressure cooker and shred the meat using two forks.

Step 10

Discard excess liquid from the pressure cooker and return the shredded pork to the pot. Stir in the BBQ sauce until the pork is fully coated.

Step 11

Set the pressure cooker to 'Keep Warm' or 'Sauté' mode and let the pork heat through for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 12

Toast the sandwich buns if desired. Assemble sandwiches by piling the BBQ pulled pork onto the buns and topping with pickles or coleslaw, if using.

Step 13

Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Pressure Cooker BBQ Barbecue Pork Sandwiches!
